Ingredients

For the Dip

16 oz Velveeta cheese Gives the dip its creamy, melty texture that everyone craves; no substitutions recommended.
10 oz Frozen spinach Adds nutrition and a subtle earthiness; be sure to thaw and completely drain it.
6 oz Bacon Infuses the dip with a savory, smoky flavor; feel free to swap in turkey bacon or leave it out for a vegetarian option.
2 cans Rotel tomatoes Provides a zesty burst of flavor; choose either mild or spicy based on your heat preference.
8 oz Cream cheese Enhances the richness and silkiness of the dip; sour cream can be used for a tangy twist.

Optional Garnish

Fresh herbs (cilantro or chives) Add a pop of freshness and color to your dish.

Method

Instructions

Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out excess moisture to avoid a watery dip.
In your slow cooker, combine the prepared spinach, Velveeta, cream cheese, and Rotel tomatoes. Crumble bacon over the mixture.
Set your slow cooker to HIGH and cover. Cook for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is fully melted.
Give the dip a final stir, adjust consistency with milk if needed, and serve warm with tortilla chips.
